Eastern Europe, the last part of Europe to become western, will be the only place in the world where the West survives. For a time.

The West is an idea that requires an antithesis: the East.

The First and Second World Wars began and ended in Eastern Europe. Napoleon's downfall was sealed by the Treaty of Bucharest, 1812. I wonder if it it is too much to hope that the EU will end in Eastern Europe.
